2018’s projected 130-team rankings, from Ohio State through UTEP
From the link:
Washington and Oklahoma or bust
Among the power conferences, three stand out above the other two. The Pac-12 and Big 12 are each given only one top-10 team here.
Washington is loaded and ready for another run, but if the Huskies slip, there might not be another contender in the bunch. USC has to replace a ton of production, and Oregon isn’t ready yet.
In the Big 12, Oklahoma State and TCU are both replacing key pieces, and barring a second-year leap, Texas probably won’t have all the pieces Tom Herman needs yet despite this awesome recruiting class.
You can make the case that the Big 12 is in good shape long-term (on the field, at least) because of Texas’ potential rise and OSU’s and TCU’s proven staying power. But this could be a transition year, especially considering that even the lone title contender (Oklahoma) has a lot to replace.
